Can you reload a form with fields prepopulated from the previous form submission?

Terry Dowdy

We have a form that allows users to submit ideas for an upcoming conference. We want to allow them to submit as many different ideas as they'd like, each one on a separate row, so we have the form reloaded after each submission.

We'd like to prepopulate a couple of fields on the reloaded form with data from the preceding form submission. Can this be done?

Hi @Terry Dowdy

I hope you're well and safe!

Unfortunately, it's not possible at the moment, but it's an excellent idea!

Please submit an Enhancement Request when you have a moment.

As a possible workaround. I developed a solution using two forms (or the same form by using conditional logic) that can be used to submit the main information and then the other information on a new row for each submission after the first.

Would that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe and have a fantastic week!
